Donations
Those who are eligible to participate in clinical trials face many barriers. Most times, cancer clinical trials take place at the university setting or metropolitan medical centers, and people who wish to participate are forced to relocate or drive long distances away from their family and supporters. Other barriers may be insurance, cost, or lack of education and understanding.
Community Cancer Research Foundation seeks to break down these barriers by making cancer clinical research trials available in the community setting, so people can be treated close to home. The Foundation uses its funds to pay for the drugs and tests used in the trials, and to educate the community about the prevention, detection and treatment of cancer, and the importance of clinical research.
Please consider Community Cancer Research Foundation, Inc., when giving charitably. You may make a donation in honor or memory of someone, or simply to help the cause. Or, you may participate in our Lights of Life program each winter holiday season. All donations are tax deductible.
